The Patriots added more depth to their offensive line with their final pick in the fourth round, drafting Stanford offensive tackle Cam Fleming with the 140th selection.

This was the Patsí compensatory selection.

At 6-foot-5, 325 pounds, Fleming had a productive three-year career in the Pac-12, starting all 37 games. He left school a year early and was considered a third-round talent. Fleming was a 20113 Second Team All Pac-12 selection.

The Patriots didnít re-sign offensive tackle Will Svitek in the offseason, so adding Fleming makes sense. The team also needed some insurance for Sebastian Vollmer, who broke his ankle last season.

Fleming is set to graduate from Stanford this spring with a degree in aeronautics and astronautics.

This is the second offensive lineman that the Patriots have drafted today. They took Florida State center Bryan Stork with their first pick (105 overall) in the fourth round.
